Day 25 – July 3 – Atlanta, GA (continued)



We had our 2nd chance in 3 days to see the Chicago Cubs. It was the 3rd time we’ve seen the Cubs on the trip. When the game ended we planned to stick around for the fireworks show that was scheduled for tonight. We’ve had plenty of fireworks opportunities in this trip and tonight’s the night to indulge in them. That was until the thunderstorm delayed the start and pushed the game back. With a huge travel day tomorrow and Thursday we decided getting on the road and getting a decent night sleep overroad the Fireworks. We know that staying after won’t be possible tomorrow night in St. Louis. When the game was over it was on the road again. We gave Jerry 10 bucks so he could take the MARTA out to Atlanta-Hartsfield Airport and fly back to Charlotte because I don’t think he wanted to walk all the way back. It was good seeing Jerry after several years and he showed us a couple things on the Bojangles’ menu that were really good. Looking at the map we decided to make the trip to Chattanooga Tennessee before calling it a night. So it was back on our favorite Interstate highway, I-75 to Chattanooga. It is a little after midnight here so we should be able to get a decent night sleep before hitting the road again in the morning. The plan has us heading out around 9AM, as it is only about 440 miles to St. Louis. But first, sleep beckons.
